Moringa energy tea for work: a measured cup for your desk or commute

If your workday runs on coffee or energy drinks, you may want a caffeinated option where you know exactly what is in the cup. Miracle Tree Energy tea has 155 mg of natural caffeine per bag, from organic black tea, blended with organic moringa leaf in fruit and spice flavors. One bag, one mug, one number per bag.

It is made for the 2 p.m. desk, the train, the early-start commute, and anyone who would like a tea habit that still counts caffeine honestly.

How much caffeine is in Energy tea, compared with coffee?

Here is the plain comparison. Each Energy tea bag has 155 mg of natural caffeine. The USDA lists about 95 mg of caffeine in an 8 oz cup of brewed coffee, so one Energy bag has more caffeine than a typical small cup, not less. We do not call it gentler than coffee. For the full comparison, see our caffeine ladder.

Where does the caffeine come from? It is a caffeine extract from organic black tea. Moringa leaf does not contain caffeine, so the caffeine in this line is added through that extract.

Why moringa leaf?

Moringa is a leafy tree grown across the tropics, and the dried leaf is the part we use. It tastes green and mild, which is why we pair it with fruit and spice. Nutritionally, the interesting numbers come from the powder: gram for gram, moringa leaf powder has about 7 times the protein of plain yogurt (Gopalakrishnan 2016 and USDA data), but a serving is only a few grams. Moringa leaf also naturally contains beta-carotene. A steeped tea bag gives you far less than a spoonful of powder, so we will not pretend the tea is a nutrient shortcut. If nutrition is your goal, look at our moringa powder. If your goal is a good-tasting caffeinated cup, the tea is the right place to start.

How to make it

Pour just-boiled water over one bag in a mug and steep for 4 to 5 minutes. For a commute, brew it at home and pour it into a travel tumbler, or chill it and pour over ice for a desk afternoon.

When the day is done, switch to caffeine-free

Energy tea belongs earlier in the day. With 155 mg per bag, it is not an evening drink. After dinner, 18 of our 20 herbal flavors are caffeine-free, and they are the same organic moringa leaf. Try Lemon & Chamomile or Honey & Vanilla, or read our evening tea guide. Looking to cut down on coffee instead of keeping your caffeine? See the caffeine ladder.

Questions about Energy tea at work

Is energy tea a good alternative to coffee at work?

It can be, if you like tea and want a caffeinated option with a fixed amount. Each Energy tea bag has 155 mg of natural caffeine from organic black tea, compared with about 95 mg in an 8 oz cup of brewed coffee (USDA). It is a different drink, not a weaker one.

How much caffeine is in moringa energy tea?

155 mg of natural caffeine per bag, in all six Energy flavors. The caffeine comes from a caffeine extract of organic black tea. Moringa leaf itself does not contain caffeine.

Is 155 mg of caffeine too much?

The FDA has cited 400 mg a day as an amount not generally associated with negative effects in healthy adults. One bag is 155 mg, so keep your other caffeine in mind: coffee, soda, and other tea all count toward your day. If you are pregnant, sensitive to caffeine, or take medication, talk with your doctor first.

What is a good tea to drink in the afternoon at work?

If you want caffeine, an Energy tea such as Orange Passionfruit or Cherry Chamomile works as a single measured cup. If you would rather skip caffeine after lunch, our herbal flavors are caffeine-free in 18 of 20 cases, and you can read the full list on our herbal collection.

Can I drink energy tea on my commute?

Yes. Brew a bag for 4 to 5 minutes, then pour it into an insulated tumbler, or chill it and carry it over ice.

Can I drink it every day?

Many people have one caffeinated tea a day. Count the total caffeine from everything you drink, and check with your doctor if you have a health condition or take medication.

Is moringa energy tea organic?

Yes. Everything Miracle Tree makes is USDA Organic and EU Organic certified (Control Union), including the Energy line, and the moringa leaf comes from single-origin Sri Lanka.

How do I brew Energy tea?

One bag in a mug of just-boiled water, steeped for 4 to 5 minutes. It tastes good hot or over ice.

What should I drink in the evening instead?

Choose one of our caffeine-free herbal flavors. Eighteen of the 20 herbal flavors are caffeine-free; Green Tea is decaffeinated (under 1 mg) and Earl Grey is low caffeine (5 to 10 mg), so skip those two if you want none.
